Having rump steak sw roasties mashed sprouts n fried onion mushrooms n pepper with morrisons instant peppercorn sauce....cant find syns for this though

 

[Moshie]

Is that done with gammon or pork ? I remember glancing at a thread but didn't read it properly. Could I do it in the slow cooker ? Sounds lush

Just been to a butchers who sell loads of syn free stuff, I bought garlic chicken, Caribbean chicken, square sausages (can't wait for these) and 1 of they're burgers to try. They had a great section but that'll do me for starters. Picks to follow x

i'm planning on going to see if my butchers have anything suitable. what did you ask for? just extra lean stuff?
i imagine the steak slice would be ok from most places if they pride themselves on it being 100% meat...just depends if its extra lean and my god how fab will it be to have a proper sausage...no low fat herby numbers lol x

This butcher has specifically got meats with sauces advertised as slimming worlds syn free, and hamburger & sausages all marked either syn Free or 1/2 syn. Think all butchers should do this as they would make a fortune. Ain't going to lie there stuff was a bit dearer but the chicken breasts were huge x

i agree...they would make a fortune! lol. that's great that they mark it all up with syns etc eh.
butchers stuff is always a bit dearer but worth it for the quality! i'm going to ask...and i'm well jel of your roll on square tomorrow....mind the "fried" onions as superfree....oh perfection *she says thru gritted teeth* lol x

Sure. I make the chilli as follows

1 pack of lean minced steak
1 large onion
1 pack of Mushrooms
Hot chilli powder
2 tins of branston baked beans

I brown the mince then add the chilli powder to stir into the mince before adding all the rest of the ingredients. I find it makes the mince hold the taste of the spices

I then make rice with the bachelors golden savoury rice.

That's it really. Add as much chilli as you like.
Best of all no syns to count
